We are pleased to announce that “Ionic Bonding” has been ported over to HTML5 and should now work on phones, iPads, and Chromebooks, as well as traditional computers. The new version is the first to include a new 3D modeling system, complete with physics. The traditional Flash-based version was animated by hand. The new version uses Coulomb’s Law (opposite charges attract, like charges repel) to animate the particles in a much more realistic way. Watch as 12 ions spontaneously self-assemble into a crystal!

Welcome to SimBucket!

All of the simulations on this site were built by a small team of teachers. If you see something you like, please share it. If you have an idea for a new simulation, send us an email and we might just build it!
